Table of contents:
Microsoft's commitment to make OneNote a truly cross-platform service is becoming more noticeable The most recent step in that direction has been to release an update to OneNote for Android that allows it to adapt to tablets with screens of 8 inches or larger, and adds support for digital ink.
"Freehandwriting is implemented in a very similar way to what we see in OneNote for Windows, being able to write with your finger or with a digital pen above the rest of the content, be it images, text or documents, in order to add notes in a more natural way, as if were writing on a sheet of paperwith printed elements.Of course, we can draw strokes of different colors and thicknesses, use the highlighter tool, and also write or draw on blank notes."
This version of OneNote also stands out for adding an interface specially designed for Android tablets Thanks to that, navigation becomes more simple, showing all the notebooks and sections at a glance. In addition, a Ribbon similar to OneNote for iPad is implemented, offering formatting editing and tag management options.
And OneNote users on Android smartphones also benefit as the update brings improvements performance and stability for them, in addition to adding compatibility with the LG G3, which until now was not supported by the Microsoft application.
What's new in OneNote Modern UI for Windows
The OneNote app from the Windows Store also includes improvements to keep up with it. The most important novelty added this time is support for printing notes, which can be achieved via the Devices charm in Windows, with a new Print button>Ctrl+P "
In addition to this, you can insert attachments and hard copies of PDF files in notes The latter is very useful, since it makes it easier to take notes linked to a document, either with a keyboard or using digital writing. And precisely in terms of digital writing, we also have to add the highlighter tool to highlight text.
The most benefited from these new features are users of Windows tablets, since the desktop version of OneNote already included all these features.Still, it's good that the functionality gap between the two editions is closing, so that OneNote offers the same user experience no matter what device it's on. Let's work.
